Patriotic Society Party

The Patriotic Society Party (PSP) is a populist political party in Ecuador that was founded on 4 March 2002 by former army colonel Lucio Gutierrez. From 2003 to 2005, Gutierrez served as President, and the party appealed to indigenous citizens and lower-class voters. In 2005, Gutierrez was deposed, and his party became a very minor party.
